Citrus derivative makes transparent wood 100 percent renewable


Citrus derivative makes transparent wood 100 percent renewable
Five years after introducing see-through wood building material, researchers in Sweden have taken it to another level. They found a way to make their composite 100 percent renewable – and more translucent – by infusing wood with a clear bio-plastic made from citrus fruit.
Since it was first introduced in 2016, transparent wood has been developed by researchers at KTH Royal Institute of Technology as one of the most innovative new structural materials for building construction. It lets natural light through and can even store thermal energy.

Citrus Derivatives Can Create 100% Renewable Transparent Wood

Researchers at KTH s Wallenberg Wood Science Centre used fossil-based polymers in earlier models of the composite. The researchers have now successfully tested an environmentally safe alternative: limonene acrylate, a limonene-derived monomer. They published their findings in the journal Advanced Science.
The current limonene acrylate is made from organic citruses, such as peel waste from the orange juice industry, says Céline Montanari, lead author and Ph.D. student.
The polymer that restores the strength of delignified wood while allowing light to pass through is made from an extract from orange juice processing.
According to the researchers, the modern composite has a 90 percent optical transmittance at 1.2 mm thickness and a 30 percent haze. Unlike other translucent wood composites produced in the last five years, the material manufactured at KTH is intended for structural use. With a power of 174 MPa (25.2 ksi) and an elasticity ....
